So, what y'all doing for Rapture?

What are you guys planning for the festivities? I think I'll go get a case of PBR's , a bag of Doritos and a cigar and sit on the beach and listen to some Barry McQuire. And wait for the huge ball of fire.

It's supposed to rain, if it's floods instead of a fireball, maybe the beach isn't the best place. If you want to get away from the coast (just in case) and you're bringing beer and chips, let me know.

Does anyone have the exact time of day for this?


I'll be playing golf for a charity fundraiser and I just may need another good deed or 2.

I will be at an amusement park. I asked my wife if she wanted to throw a party and she let me know that our son is now 54" tall and he should get to ride the big rollercoaster before his time comes.

I tried to explain that in our family, I was likely the only person who would be taken...she did not seem overly concerned.

I think that works out to 10am Pacific. At least that's the logic my friends are using to be hammered by 10am on a Saturday.

Yea, well it will be 6:00 PM in Europe by then so you might as well get lit.

I can tell which of you guys ain't ascending tomorrow!!


The Rapture will take place at 6PM local time everywhere, as it travels around the planet in 24 hours.

So, wherever you are, 6PM. I'm sure that's how God works, and it had nothing to do with the slightly bat**** crazy preacher not thinking far enough ahead to actually schedule a single time for the End of the World...

Wasn't somebody going to sit on the western side of a time line and have a couple of beers while watching the eastern side floaters go up?

Will The Rapture recognize Daylight Saving Time, or was that a tool of Satan?
